Zuora Integration

Alooma can read and replicate many of the Zuora objects from your Zuora account. This allows you to merge your subscription billing and finance data with other data in Alooma to get deeper insights on your business.

Background

Alooma synchronizes Zuora data every 15 minutes. We pull all Zuora data incrementally to make the replication as fast as possible. Alooma performs a CDC-like replication, including capturing of deletes, by executing queries in both Stateless and Stateful Modes.

Setting up the integration

You can connect Zuora to Alooma in just a few steps:

Click Add an input from the plumbing screen.

Select the Zuora option.

Name your Zuora input. We’ll use the input name in the UI, but it won’t affect event naming. Note that after creation, input name cannot be changed.

Enter your Zuora Partner ID. If you do not have this info, submit a request at Zuora Global Support.

Supply your Zuora username and password.

Select the objects you'd like to stream to Alooma. The name of the object will be the name of the event type in Alooma.

Indicate whether the account you're using is a sandbox account.

Under advanced options you can:

Specify the time range for the data Alooma will import. By default Alooma will stream Zuora data from 1 year ago.

Change the replication frequency, which defaults to 15 minutes.

Keep the mapping mode to the default of OneClick if you'd like Alooma to automatically map all Zuora objects directly to your data destination. Otherwise, they'll have to be mapped manually from the Mapper screen.
